I like building/making things, I have no artistic ability so I don't do much carving.

BillB Report post Posted October 24, 2008 Shoer, Welcome to the Forum. I think you will enjoy it here. This is a very diverse group of experiences as well as leather interests. As with anything, you will find that we have all had difference experiences and thus have come up with different solutions to various problems and way to create beautiful work using leather. We are happy to share this knowledge so that others can sample and decide for themselves the best solution. We are all interested in advancing the knowledge of leathercraft and leather base art and sharing our knowledge and techniques is part of that. I believe that it is possible to "teach and old dog new tricks" and I continue to learn. BillB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
